That is an excellent question! It would be nice if they could make it a static display in a place where you could take pictures next to it. They need to ensure they preserve every bit of history connected to, in my opinion, one of the greatest men to ever live.

A great photo op would be so so cool on many fronts. Get thought now if only the powers to be would listen.

* Becky Cline-Disney Archives Director, told me that Walt's plane is safe and secure, and in the hands of WDI. WDI have yet to figure out what they are going to do with his plane.

Oh, I hope not! But at least the termites can't eat the outside of the plane.

Perhaps the next greatest revenue stream.
